It's a pretty simple concept - Brandon LaFell was not good last year, he was not better in the second half, he just had more balls thrown his way.
After AJ was injured, he was force-fed passes, caught a lower % of his targets and averaged less yards per target.
He had some fluke like 85 yard reception, on a 3 yard slant pass, vs the Texans that additionally grossly inflated his 'value'
To the other posters who can't comprehend a #2 WR becoming more 'efficient' when their #1 goes down, i can't help you there
It happens all the time
